Filming starts on The Devil Wears Prada 2, Entertainment News
The 2006 film — which is based on the semi-autobiographical novel by Lauren Weisberger — followed Anne Hathaway as an aspiring journalist who starts working for formidable Runway magazine boss Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep), and now the cast have reportedly started work on the sequel.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the movie is now "heading into production" with filming planned in New York and Italy, and Emily Blunt and Stanley Tucci have also returned to their roles as Emily Charlton and Nigel respectively.
What's more, the outlet also claims that Kenneth Branagh has been added to the cast.
The news comes just weeks after Emily — who played an overly ambitious employee at the fictional fashion magazine — teased that filming would commence in July and that there could be some "beef" between her alter-ego and Meryl's character.
She told Entertainment Tonight: "[Meryl and I are] so mean to each other in every movie [they] do".
"We always have beef with each other. I don't know what it is. Let's hope we remedy it. I'm not sure!"
But in reality, she admitted that she has no clue what her character is up to now as she remained coy about giving away any plot details.
She said: "I don't know. Where is Emily? I don't know
"Can you tell I'm skirting the issue? Can you tell I'm not telling you anything?"
She also noted that she had no idea that she would ever return to the role that started her career almost 20 years ago.
She said: "No. Twenty years ago, in a blink, it's gone by."
The Devil Wears Prada 2 is set for release on July 1, 2026.

Want to be the next Anna Wintour? Famed editor role at US Vogue now up for grabs on LinkedIn
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox While some netizens were excited about the prospect of becoming the magazine's new head, others were more sceptical. Ever dreamt of becoming the next Anna Wintour? You can now have a shot at snagging her highly coveted role at US Vogue, as advertised on LinkedIn by the magazine's parent company on July 2. A week after British-born Wintour shocked the fashion world with news that she was stepping down as editor-in-chief , Conde Nast took to LinkedIn to call for applicants for the position, now renamed as Head of Editorial Content at US Vogue. In its post, the global media firm shared a collage of pink couture dresses and simply said: 'We are hiring.' Those interested were asked to send in their resumes to a leadership consulting firm. The post has since garnered significant traction on social media with over 4,000 reactions on LinkedIn, and several reactions from TikTok and X users. While some netizens were excited about the prospect of becoming the magazine's new head, others were more sceptical. Some were also at odds about the hiring process. One LinkedIn user said that the company's move was an indication of a 'cultural reset', while another joked if candidates who 'don't rock a bob and sunglasses indoors' would be considered. However, one X user quipped: 'What if all of this is just marketing for The Devil Wears Prada 2?' Known for her iconic bob haircut and black sunglasses, Wintour, 75, is among the most influential figures in fashion journalism, having held the position as US Vogue editor for 37 years. She was widely believed to be the inspiration behind the lead character in The Devil Wears Prada, played by Meryl Streep. The sequel to the 2006 film, The Devil Wears Prada 2, was announced on June 30, just days after Wintour announced her departure at a staff meeting. Wintour has said that she would remain as Conde Nast's global chief content officer and editorial director at Vogue. It is not known if Conde Nast has reached out to any applicants. While some media outlets have speculated that the company could look for a replacement internally, there have been no official announcements yet.

Mission: Impossible composer Lalo Schifrin dies at 93, media reports say, World News
Argentine musician Lalo Schifrin, composer of the memorable Mission: Impossible theme and the scores for dozens of Hollywood movies and TV shows, has died at age 93, media outlets reported on Thursday (June 26). Schifrin's son, William, confirmed his father's death, The Hollywood Reporter said. An agent for Schifrin did not immediately respond to an e-mail from Reuters. Born in Buenos Aires, Schifrin became a fan of American jazz in his teens. He was also a pianist and conductor. Schifrin received six Oscar nominations for movie scores that included the 1967 film Cool Hand Luke and The Amityville Horror in 1979. He won four Grammys, including one for the Mission: Impossible theme set to an unconventional 5/4 time signature. The song was written for the CBS television spy drama that debuted in 1966 and became a blockbuster film franchise still running today. Schifrin received an honorary Oscar for his lifetime of work in 2018. Clint Eastwood presented him with the award. [[nid:718013]]
